Every time I tried from 4 different domain accounts including my Gentoo one I was denied the ability to send you an email. While I'm sure many comments are going to be a bit harsh if realistic please do feel free to talk to any of the developers. Splitting isn't really realistic as that is getting away from upstream. As an organization we try to maintain the same way as upstream intends. If they say that mysql is not a collection of server, client then its just mysql. Xorg is a perfect example. It was a huge package, that got split up. It took Donnie and the rest of the X team a while to get everything ready for the tree but we followed upstream in having individual packages for the different aspects of the larger project.
